“The Chef's take on everyday food IS the experience! Golf, that's an after thought, you won't even notice the course while treating yourself to an experience your mouth won't shut up about long after "T-time" . So, one lump or two?“

“First time we try this place and it has become our new fav brunch/lunch spot in Long Beach right away!The food is super tasty and healthy, definitely one of the best vegan food I ever had in LA. Great atmosphere and super friendly staff. To top it off, the patio tables and indoor/outdoor space make it very dog friendly which was perfect for our dog (it’s also 5min from Rosie’s beach, so very convenient!)“

“Good food. Great service. Very understanding and accommodating staff.“

“Title: Hidden Gem in Seal Beach!I recently discovered this hidden gem in Seal Beach after my favorite restaurant closed down. What a pleasant surprise it was!Review:My wife and I stumbled upon this restaurant while enjoying a leisurely stroll in the downtown area, and we were blown away by the exceptional service and food quality. The Angus Beef Brisket was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection, and bursting with flavor. The Brussels sprouts and the biscuit were excellent additions to our meal, adding a delightful touch to our dining experience.Atmosphere:The weather was delightful, adding to the charm of our dining experience. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting, and we felt right at home from the moment we walked in.Dining Experience:We were fortunate to arrive just before the rush as there were no empty tables when we visited last Saturday. It's a good thing we beat the crowd - timing truly is everything!Conclusion:I have no hesitation in awarding this restaurant a well-deserved 5-star rating. We will definitely be returning on our next visit to Seal Beach. If you're looking for a new favorite spot with top-notch food and service, look no further!“

“Food: Kimchi Butter Katsu Chicken had the right balance between spice, butter, moist breaded chicken; Kimchi Butter Shrimp was also excellent; Spam Brulee was a great new take on the typical Spam Musubi with their mayo-based sauce on top Service: made-to-order service Design: interiors had the touch of island vibes with the rope lashing & surfboard sign, but is part of the larger Rodeo 39 Public Market Overall: if you want great Hawaiian inspired grindz with a little extra kick, then check out this spot and get ready to roll your eyes back with satisfaction!!!“

“I’ve only gotten the stock burger which is very good. Hoping perhaps one day I’ll be hungry enough for the max rib“

“I'm glad that the original owners are back. The food is great again!“

“Great services and delicious food!“

“Parking: Very easy even on a Saturday/ Sunday brunch day. I would say to come early to check in on their Yelp waitlist in case their place get's especially busy. If you order all these dishes with a group of 4 people, this will fill you up. Banana Latte: Tasted more of the latte than the banana. Gamberry Rose Pasta: Don't play with the spicy level. It's not death spicy but it's a bit like Shin Ramen spicy. Would not recommend this dish for my non tolerant spicy people. Pasta is wonderful though, sauce was like uni cream, there were bits of masago (tiny fish eggs) to add a nice texture, 2-3 regular shrimp and a jumbo shrimp in the dish. Beet Tataki Salad: Would highly recommend for anyone! The beef was cooked so well, medium rare on the inside and the outside sliced edges were really crispy! Salad was refreshingly and dressed well with their vinaigrette, tomato, and shredded cheese. Gambas: Not my favorite dish. The sliced bread was presented in the skillet so bottom portion of the bread was overly greasy. There was too much olive oil at the bottom of the pan than necessary. Toasted whole garlic and olives, I think the only redeemable feature of the dish would be the shrimp.“

“I've been here a few times, and it's always to catch up with a good friend over brunch. There is plenty of space between you and the next table so you can talk without everyone hearing your conversation. And there's just something comforting about their big coffee mugs and the food. The food portions are huge by the way. I always take it home. I love leftovers. I don't think you can go wrong with your order. Everything I've had here has been delicious. The only thing that is difficult is the parking situation. I don't come here on busy nights because of the parking.“

“great service. fun yummy food and reasonable prices. go !“

“I stumbled across this restaurant and decided to get dinner to go. It was great. I've been back 3 times and will continue to recommend it. Teri Dietrich Krauss“

“GREAT SERVICE MY SERVER WAS ATTENTIVE. THE SOUP WAS EXCELLENT THE DRINK WAS HORRIBLE I WANTED TO TRY IT FOR THE FIRST TIME NEVER EVER AGAIN. FOR IT TO BE WATERMELON MARGARITA IT JUST TASTE LIKE A WATERED DOWN DRINK. I DIDN'T EVEN DRINK.“

“These burgers are very good. The food is made to order. From burgers, fries to chicken wings. This place is good. I've had a few different burgers and they don't disappoint. The chili cheese fries are good. They don't have an indoor seating area which is needed. The outdoor seating area is small.“

“Great family-run shop filled with traditional bento. By this time, we've tried at least half of the menu and everything is great.Egg salad or katsu sandos are great if you want something simple.But sets of roast beef bowls or chicken nanban are also great. Gyudon or sets with multiple courses if you were really hungry.There's also tempura and takoyaki. So many different options.Call ahead and order if you are short on time. Parking in the lot is fairly easy. Service is great.“

“Todo los paninis de chipotle son una delicia !! El personal siempre muy amables !!! Nose cómo se llama la señora que atiende pero es mayor y es muy linda de carácter!“

“I always go with Evan Tan and we fall in love every time“

“First time there 2/8/24, a little wait but worth it. Food came out within minutes, I like the idea of pictures of food menu items. Just tell them your preferences and food will be out less than 10 mins. Korean restaurants always have sides side that are refillable. Great flavor and so delicious.“

“The Nash is amazing and the pickles are standouts as well“

“I stopped in at Break Time...I brought my Laptop & WiFi so I could work from Restaurant...I had a late Breakfast and Stayed for Lunch... both were excellentI worked the remainder of the Day... until 3:00pm▪︎ Plenty of Coffee Refills“

“We hired Asher's BBQ for a school event and they were amazing! The food was delicious, the prices were affordable, and the service was great. I especially like that they do an online ordering service to eliminate time waiting in line. All the families had nothing but great things to say. Would definitely ask them back again.“

“Fresh and delicious.Located inside 2nd & PCH downstairs across from Shake Shack. Came here during the weekday for lunch. Restaurant was clean and was pretty quiet, maybe saw 1-2 ppl while I was eating there.Asked the lady for recommendations, and she was so nice. Ordered the 6 wing combo ( Thai chili). Food was hot and fresh. Wings were crunchy, great flavor, and not spicy. Fries were so good - seasoned well and crunchy. I would definitely get that again.“

“I like the big portion of this restaurant. I went 2 people so we ordered 2 dishes. We tried: 1. Pork Back Bone Stew: very huge portion. The meat is soft and you can feel the broth has been well cooked that gives you the sweet and rich taste. 2. Stir Fried Squid (because I love squid!): very good. This dish can be eaten with rice (if you want to be full) or will paired good with a taste of Soju. The portions are big so don't over ordering or you will have some food to go. The food is a little plaint and there's salt to add (if you are a salty food fan) to assure you don't leave the broth behind. You will feel healthy as you leave the place. Will be great to have for hangover or when you are sick. I went on a weekend night for dinner and the restaurant was a little quiet. I think this place is most suitable for lunch. I would definitely come back to try their other stews and pork belly!“

“Enjoyed some great service from Dan... He gave us some great pointers on what beers to order and introduced us to the beer club which we absolutely love!!! We've been coming here for 4+ years how did we not know about this Gem of a club .. thank you once again Dan !!!“

“I never thought that I could find the real authentic Korean food like this I’ve been looking for the raw marinated crab for my whole life and then here it is!! The food were 10/10 ! I would highly recommend the galbitang soup beside the crab “

“Stopped by here, as this used to be my favorite Vietnamese spot, until they sold the business. This Fat Belly Grill appears to be family owned. Friendly staff were very helpful. The menu is a little all over the place, some Mexican food, some Mexican-American food, some Mediterranean food, and some American food.“

“Great foods and well done!“

“Our server... sorry I forget her name, but she was a redhead..., was extremely nice and provided great service. One slight disappointment is they had multiple red wines listed on the menu but only had one expensive one available the night we were there. The three-piece jazz combo...I'm sorry to say weren't that great. The brussels sprouts and the salmon were excellent, but the prime rib sandwich, while good was slightly disappointing. Overall I'd recommend. “

“good spot 2 easy and enjoy fierce gud times moments with good Ole folks yyeesss“
